Kerim Alajbegovic and Nick Woltemade are brought into the Juventus attack as Luciano Spalletti looks to lift Bianconeri spirits away against Celta Vigo in the Europa League on Thursday evening.
It kicks off at the Estadio Bailados at 20.00 UK time (21.00 CEST).
The Bianconeri sat at the top of the Europa League standings after the first round of fixture prior to the international break thanks to a 5-0 hammering of NEC, but their Serie A form has been a cause for disappointment with four points out of a possible nine over their last three games, including a 3-2 defeat against Sassuolo and a 1-1 draw away against Cagliari.
Hosts Celta Vigo were beaten 1-0 away against Cypriot side Omonoia in their first Europa League game of the season and were held to a 0-0 draw away against Elche in their first LaLiga match after the international break.
Spalletti has been without several of his key players in the early stages of the 2026-27 season, including Kenan Yildiz, Khephren Thuram and Manuel Locatelli, all out long-term. They have also recently been without Jeff Ekhator, Arkadiusz Milik and Kamil Grabara.
Andrea Cambiaso made his return from injury against Cagliari over the weekend and is brought into the starting line-up against Celta Vigo on Thursday evening.
Pre-match reports suggest that it will be a Juventus back three on Thursday night with Cambiaso and McKennie at wing-back and a defensive line of Pierre Kalulu, Federico Gatti and Jhon Lucumi. Bremer is rested on this occasion.
Douglas Luiz has also been given a rest in midfield, which means an opportunity for Teun Koopmeiners alongside summer signing Pape Matar Sarr.
Alajbegovic, who provided the equalising assist against Cagliari over the weekend, is brought into the starting line-up, as is Woltemade, with Francisco Conceicao completing the attacking trident.
